OZONATION SYSTEMS
IN WATER AND BEVERAGE BOTTLING PLANTS
SUITABLE ALSO IN BREWERIES, VINERIES, JUICE PROCESSING AND OTHER FOOD
PROCESSING PLANTS
O3 Water Systems has a complete and fully automatic (ORP controlled) system for the
bottling and food processing industry. It has been proven beyond a doubt that only a fully
automatic system, with a close loop programmable ORP control, can assure 100% consistency
in the water quality and disinfection. These systems are in operation in Canada, the US,
Mexico, Europe and Asia. References are available.
In these applications ozonation systems provide
complete elimination of bacteria, viruses, fungus, and parasites, the removal of
oxidizable metals, chemicals, and organic waste. Unused ozone breaks down into oxygen and
stays dissolved in the water — adding to the taste and appearance of final product.
The dosage of ozone at the point of filler is very
important. If the ozone level is too high, plastic bottles may develop an aftertaste. If
the level is too low, bacteria spores hidden inside the plastic walls will recover and
easily contaminate the whole product. The proper ozone level residual dosage has been
legislated by many states.
Water charged with ozone is also suitable for rinsing bottles, cleaning and
disinfecting of the equipment (such as milk processing machines) cleaning and disinfection
of the production facilities. Thanks to O3 Water Systems' ozonation systems, harmful
chemicals have been eliminated from many food processing facilities. In many kinds of food
processing operations chemicals cannot be used at all. Before the use of ozone, Salmonella
and Lysteria have put many of these food processing facilities out of business. Ozone
provides 100% protection without interfering with the food quality and without leaving any
chemical residuals. Residual ozone decomposes quickly back to oxygen.
Examples of the types of ozone systems that are in use:
1. Single pass water treatment where the water is first distilled or
RO. filtrated.
Here ozone is mixed to dissolve to the level needed for the 100% disinfection of bottles
and caps after filling and sealing. If the bottles retain their seal, the water will
maintain its quality even after virtually unlimited storage time. Even after many years of
storage, this water will taste just as fresh as the day it was sealed. The procedures for
achieving these goals are simple and easy to achieve in real life conditions.
2. Multiple pass water treatment where the water source is a well, lake, creek,
rainwater or a glacier — where ozone is used for:
- water storage pre-treatment and protection at low levels for
24 h/day.
- flocculation and high level oxidation followed by
filtration.
- final, programmed and precise dosage for the sanitation of
the bottles.
- rinsing systems.
There are hardly two identical process operations in the
world. O3 Water Systems is ready to review and utilize your existing equipment (such as
storage tanks, pumps, filters and buildings), to be fitted for their new purpose.

Your answers will be kept in strict confidence. The systems are engineered for fully
automatic and worry-free operation. Many features are included to guarantee smooth passage
through the approval process by local authorities (such as health inspectors and workers
safety). Any single failure will not result in an unsafe product or in damage of
any kind.
The ozone generators must be installed in a well ventilated and dust free room. In most
cases only a few square feet of floor space is needed. Detailed instructions for
installation and operation will be provided after the project is ordered. The systems are
easy to operate and maintain. The overall warranty is for three years, except on the pumps
where the manufacturers warranty is applied (generally one year).
O3 Water Systems can supply complete turnkey systems which are designed to fit every
size, layout and model of water bottling operation. Our modular ozone system allows easy
expansion and interchanges. In case of a partial failure, the system ORP controller just
increases the duty of the system until repairs are made. There is no worry concerning
on-site repairs. The entire Ozone Generating Module is easy to remove and fit into a
subcompact passenger automobile. It is easy to ship and handle.
